Israel, much like the fortress of Tel-Chai that Jospeh Trumpeldor fought to defend against Arab conquerors in 1920, finds itself beseiged by enemies both within and without. Terrorists, would-be friends inside and outside Israel, and even bad government officials. Here are the discussions of one proud Zionist resident on the state of the nation and abroad.

Initial reports were later confirmed by police on Thursday, proving that the Arab terrorist from the Hevron region in Judea who stabbed to death two Jews at prayer in southern Tel Aviv and moderately wounded a third worked at a local restaurant.

The attacker, a 36-year-old resident of Dura near Hevron, had been given a work permit and was gainfully employed at a restaurant in Yafo, a suburb immediately to the south of Tel Aviv - until he decided to take up a knife and go murder Jews.

A very troubling trend was highlighted by the stabbing attack in Tel Aviv, as the restaurant worker was far from the first Arab worker to manipulatively capitalize on his place of employment and access to Jewish areas to launch lethal attacks.

It's a very good question: why are employers willing to hire somebody who could be murderously dangerous, who adheres to the Religion of Peace? That's something else they're going to have to start rethinking.

About me

I'm Avi Green

From Jerusalem, Israel

I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
